This is Wake Up Classy 97, the podcast. It's a replay of today's full show in about an hour or so. It's Monday, January 13th. On today's show, it's public broadcasting day. Since 1910.
Be sure to drink your Ovaltine. No. Is that right? That's the secret decoder message? Yeah.
Is it finally time to turn off the Christmas light timer? It might be. It might be. It just might be. I think it's time.
We drank some cereal. Yeah. You know, as you do. AI thinks we need a new Golden Girls. I don't think that's the case.
Think so either. But also And also you're gonna be blown away at how old that sounds bad. That does sound bad. You're going to be blown away at Lisa Kudrow's age. I'm not gonna say how much.
It's just wildly amazing. I know. I got a new middle name, and it's Danger. It is not Danger. Chantel Danger Tielor.
It's not Danger. It is. I'm so dangerous. It it's something else. It's not Danger.
So dangerous and reckless. You're yeah. It's not you. Send your man on a a quest, and he'll love it. I don't know if he will.
Maybe just let him sit there. Josh took apart my sewing machine. Yep. And put it back together, and it still works. Broken.
It It it's it sows. Does it not? It does. It sows very well. It's fine.
Now is a fine time to think about your spring garden. Yeah. What do you wanna plant? Rutabaga No. And leeks No.
And What do you really wanna plant? I don't I potato. Those Potatoes. Don't know. Potatoes.
Why did I say potatoes? I don't want potatoes. Potatoes. Cucumbers and zucchini and peppers and jalapenos, cilantro, and onions. I just want You want a salsa.
Salsa. You want salsa. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. Because you're a big scooper. That's why. The weekend was filled with fun projects, but we should've done some chores. Don't say should've.
We should've. Take the should'ves out of it. I don't wanna do chores. I know. Quit thinking you should've done chores.
Awesome, and I'm happy we didn't do any chores. It's wild card weekend in the NFL. Yeah. Football. Josh took me to a place with more hackle than I've ever seen in my life.
And you're welcome. Was amazed. I know you were. So amazed. It's pretty amazing.
And the Newcastle Big Boy is guarding Australia. I don't wanna go to Australia. I really don't. The Newcastle Big Boy is something else. It also sounds like the name of a delicious hamburger, but it's not.

It's the weekend. Yeah. I was just thinking, we survived the weekend, and now it's the week. Yeah. Uh-huh.
Yeah. Yeah. No. It's all about attitude, I think. Oh.
Like, you get all amped up and excited because you made it through 5 days work to get to 2 days off. Right. So you should be excited that you made it through 2 days off to get back to 5 days work. And I just would rather go back to 2 days off. Oh.
That's where I'd like to be. Uh-huh. Because it was awesome. But you made it through the weekend. Yeah.
I did make it through the weekend. Look at you go. Look at you go. Attitude of gratitude or something. Right?
That's right. You gotta have that attitude of gratitude. To have the weekend Yeah. And be thankful for more weekends. How about that?
Okay. Today is, is a big day for you and I, and you didn't even know it. What is today? Well, today is, Public Radio Broadcasting Day. So, here we are broadcasting to the public Here we are.
Doing it. You're doing it. I'm kind of. I'm just here. I sometimes say silly things, and, it's my part of this program.
No. You're here. No. I know I'm here. And you're you do more than just sit here.
Okay. It's not just about us, though. No. No. It's not.
It's it's all about people that, would would read or, speak publicly, to a group of people. They would essentially broadcast. I mean, you could go back to old time radio stuff, like the war of the worlds Oh, yeah. Things like that, which was which was a big deal. But you could go back even further.
Annie first? Little orphan Annie Well, sure. And all that? Yeah. Go go older.
The very first public radio broadcast in history What is it? It took place on January 13, 1910. A live opera with some of the most renowned opera singers of the day was broadcast from the Metropolitan Opera House. That was the very first thing that was broadcast publicly on the radio. Really?
January 13, 1910. The first ever That's today. Yeah. It was several hours long, which was kind of a big deal, and people that I don't know how people would have been able to listen because you would have had to have had a receiver in order to listen. And I bet there were very, very, very few of them.
It says they did put public receivers out in various locations around New York City so that the public could listen in as well. The furthest the music was reported to be heard was? Any idea? The furthest of, Nebraska. No.
That was just a that was just a guess. 12 miles. 12 miles. I guess 12 miles away from from the opera house. That's a big deal.
That's a huge deal. That's huge. Good for them. Anyway, now look at us. Now look at us.
Broadcasting everywhere. For decades, a a whole century and more. Anyway 115 years. That's right. That's right.
Wow. Wow. What a big day. Yeah. I didn't know it was such a big day.
Even know. So you made it through the weekend to be here on Public Broadcasting Day. Well done, you. Well done, you. Good morning.
It's Josh and Chantel. Hey, Chantel. Hey. What's up, Josh? I was just thinking, a couple of the outside Christmas decorations, have moved their way inside right by the front door because I did half the project.
But then I was thinking we got the Christmas lights on outside, which is so nice, and it's festive, and it's fun and bright and colorful. But do you think it's time to maybe turn off the timer? What do you think? I feel like maybe it's time. Is it?
Yeah. I mean, it makes me sad. It does make me sad too. And in the long run, I'd like to get those permanent lights anyway so that there'd be, lighting on on the house all the time. Right.
And then I wouldn't necessarily have to hang Christmas lights and all that. I'm certainly not gonna get up there and, take them down. That feels like too much. Well and here's the thing. They're multicolored.
Mhmm. There's a house across the street from us that just has, like, a light blue. Mhmm. And I think those are acceptable because that looks very wintery. I see.
So if I could change the color scene to a different Yeah. Sort of thing, that would be better. So if you had those ones that were permanent lights, you could adjust it to fit whatever theme you wanted it to fit. That makes sense. And then they could stay up year round.
Mhmm. Pink for Valentine's Day. Sure. Red for Valentine's Day. Sure.
Sure. You know? I do. I do. There's a whole bunch of people that still have full on decorations up, and 16th, which is a few days from today, has been designated as the unofficial takedown date for holiday decorations.
They say by 16th, that's enough. So that's Thursday. Don't listen to what people say. It would take them down when you feel like taking them down. There's no rules.
There's no rules. Leave them up all year if you want. Sure. Doesn't matter. Nobody nobody's gonna, like, walk up to your house and say, hey.
That's it. It's time. It's up to you. I just feel like maybe it's for me, it feels like I could probably turn off the time. Yeah.
I think it's time for us. Mostly, because we hung some big ornaments from our tree outside. And I was looking at those That's what's in the front entryway. I was looking at those thinking, yeah, we should probably take those down. But you don't have a ladder that was tall enough, so you had to back your truck up Right.
To hang those. You put a ladder inside the back of your truck. That's right. That was before there was snow. Safe.
Very safe. Well and, also, there's a snowman parked there. So if I There's a snowman parked there. Into the yard, I'm gonna have to knock over the snowman with the truck. It just doesn't seem safe to do in the snow either.
You're gonna destroy the grass. Well, I have a I have a tent on the back of my truck too. It's a little bit of an obstacle. Lucky for us, the wind Yeah. Knocked some of it down.
Correct. Those ornaments down. But I just put they're huge. They're like 2 giant yoga balls, and they're just sitting in the front entryway. It's because they were wet, and I don't wanna put them away dry.
I just put them there. I didn't Oh. I didn't I didn't care if they were wet or not. I just set them there. Oh, I didn't wanna put them away wet, so I was making sure that it was dry.
That's that's why. That's it. That's me too. Same. I wasn't being lazy at all.
Just letting them dry. Me too. Same. Yep. Thanks for the free excuse.
Our daughter is obsessed with touch bros. She what'd she get there? The triple berry boba? I don't know. Some ridiculous thing.
Triple berry boba blast. Lemonade thing. It's got, like, like, 6 different names. Yeah. And, when we go there, she just has to hand me the phone so that I can read it because I'm not I I'm never gonna remember that.
Gonna remember that. I I don't like pulling up, and I go, yeah. I gotta order this thing. It's a triple berry blast bobas. Bobbidi boop.
Bobbidi boop thing. It's ridiculous. It is ridiculous. But I need that. And then they go, I don't know what you're talking about.
You're you're just saying a bunch of b words. No. They know exactly what you're talking about. Bingity bang, moba. Can I get the triple berry boba with blueberries and Ridiculous?
Blackberries. It's it's anyway, they had these crazy cereal drinks. Is that what you're gonna talk about? Yeah. Yeah.
They have they're calling them what are they calling them? Breakfast. Ditch the bowl and sip breakfast all day long is what they're saying. They had a all day long. Cinnamon swirl.
Mhmm. So it was basically like cinnamon toast crunch. K. And That's the one you had. Marshmallow dream, which was, Lucky Charms.
And I got that in a Or in a blended thing. Marshmallow mateys if you like to buy the pork variety. If you're malt o meal family like us. The bag series. That's right.
I didn't mind it, but it's definitely not my favorite top of the list thing I'll ever order again. Okay. Yeah. Same with mine. You got yours blended, so it was like a frosted It was kinda like kinda like an ice cream.
Smoothie. Like, it was less ice cream, more of a more of like a because it's just ice. Uh-huh. They just blend up the ice real small. So it'd be like what you got put in a blender.
I see. Yeah. I see, like I said. Yep. Yep.
Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep. But, yeah, it was it was pretty pretty mint.
The idea was that it's supposed to taste kind of like the milk after you've eaten your cereal. I didn't feel like it did. I mine did. Did you taste mine? Yeah.
I didn't like it. I liked yours more than I liked mine. I liked your marshmallow, mateys one more than I liked the cinnamon toast one. Okay, but it wasn't, like, my favorite favorite thing. You're right.
I'll never I'll never order that again. Yeah. I I Either one of those. It was fine to try as, like, a funny little novelty thing, but that's it. Thought and here's what I thought looking at the pictures.
I thought it was going to be much sweeter than it actually was. True. So I didn't wanna order it because I'm like, I'm gonna get so sick of this. It's gonna be so sweet. It was not as sweet as I anticipated, so that was a positive.
But, also, I could do without it, and I will from now on. That's correct because you get to decide what what treat you have. But I am glad that I tried it Yeah. Because curiosity would have gotten the better of me eventually. It's exactly where I'm at.
I was very curious about it because I like cereal Yes. And I like milk, and I like the milk after cereal, but it wasn't that. You know what I should've done What? Is just put the cereal in a milk in a cup and You should've. Eaten the cereal that way.
That would be drinking my cereal. I liked you gave me yours. Yeah. You I just said you can have it. You can finish this.
I liked your I liked it. I liked eating the marshmallows. Yeah. That was fine. I don't know if you've heard, but there are, some pretty big wildfire action happening in Southern California.
Yes. And when this, kinda broke out, doctor Annie Harvylx, it ends with a c and then a z. Oh. Yeah. K.
Maybe that's a typo? No. Okay. That's just how it's spelled. Doctor Annie.
That's right. Doctor Annie, a veterinarian who runs 2 animal hospitals in the Los Angeles area. She has taken in and is caring for 41 displaced pets. She said, I looked around and I said, I have a lot of space here. I think I can help.
Even with ash raining down and her eyes stinging from the smoke, she stayed resilient with the help of volunteers. She coordinated rescues and has cared for pets, including a cat named Pumpkin, a pit bull named Daisy, and a rabbit named Oreo. She says I do it because I love animals, and I wanna take care of them. And that's something that I had not spent a lot of time thinking about in all of the footage that I've seen. Clearly, families have pets, but, typically, they would take them with them.
But there are also outside cats. There are cats that don't live inside. If something happens, you can't wrangle them if you've gotta go real fast. Being evacuated to a place where they're like Very true. Please don't bring your pets.
Very true. We can't take care of your pets here. Yep. That's great. I hope that all of these displaced pets find their owners I would agree with you.
And get reunited. Yeah. That's a big deal. So, anyway, way to go, doctor Annie Harvylitz. There's been some real I was reading some really good stories from the fires.
There's been some really good people. Yeah. Look for the helpers. Right? Helpers.
That's right. That's what we learned from mister Rogers all those years ago. So, yeah, definitely, wanna give a big shout out to her. Well done. It's good news to get you going.
I saw something, on the Internet, and I went, what? Why are we doing this? What is it? It said that it was a reboot for the Golden Girls Mhmm. When Tina Fey is dorky.
Is this AI? Is this just made up? I looked it up. Yes. It is.
Okay. Good. Went, what? Yeah. I I've seen a bunch of these where they'll put out, like, we're making another, whatever movie it is, and you go, no.
They're not. Yeah. There's no way. But they're like, no. Look at the movie poster.
Alright. Go on. A new Golden Girls with Tina Fey. As Dorothy. I don't know who's who.
Okay. I need to look up I have who's who's Golden Girls because I don't know. I I I could I don't know. Anyway, let's let's look at this. I don't know who's who.
Dorothy is kind she was the tall, kind of, like Okay. Dorothy was Bea Arthur. Okay. Alright. Kind of the Very good.
I I don't know what I don't know how to describe her. Okay. And then Amy Poehler as Sofia, who is, like, the Sofia? Sofia was the Oh, the old the older lady. Estelle Estelle Getty.
Okay. Sophie. So Dorothy and Sofia. Okay. And then Sure.
Lisa Kudrow is Rose. Lisa that's Betty White's character. Yes. Lisa Kudrow. That's, Phoebe from Friends?
Correct. Okay. And then Maya Rudolph was That's Blanche. Blanche. Okay.
Now I feel like Lisa Kudrow is a weird pick in that. I agree. And I would rather have Kristen Wiig Yes. With those, other 3, actors. Plus, honestly, I don't think these actors again, this is fake.
But I went, what? And then I had to look it up. I don't think these actors are old enough. Any of these actors are old enough to be playing the Golden Girls. Okay.
How old was Bea Arthur when she was playing Dorothy? I don't know. Look that up. Okay. I'll do the research.
I am right now. Let's see. 63. She was 63 when she was playing that character. When the when the series began.
And There's there's Betty White was also 63. They still have at least 10 years before these ladies are are old enough to to play the Golden Girls. Exactly. They're not golden yet. That's what I'm saying.
So why are they trying to force weird AI versions of these actors that are, you know, at least 10 years too young The youngest was girls. Blanche, who was 51 when the show began. She was the youngest. Yeah. That's a tough show.
Lisa Kudrow is probably the oldest. I'm taking a wild guess on that. That's interesting. She is 61. She is 61 years old?
Lisa Kudrow is 61? Yes. I do. Are you for real? I am for real.
No way. Tina Fey is 54. So, they're at the beginnings of the Golden Girls age. No way is Lisa Kudrow 61 years old. That's what the Internet says.
23 forever. Forever. What? Smelly cat in the Right. That blows my mind.
Wow. Okay. Well, thanks for that. It's not a thing. No.
Because it's AI. 5050 early fifties is the age of everybody else. So, I mean, in It's 10 years off. In 10 years close. Holy moly.
Look at what we're learning today. Yeah. So much. They're not making it. So It's not really a thing.
All of all of its All of this research is null and void. Yeah. Well, we found out Lisa Kudrow's age, and I, I'm so You're shook. Blown away. I'm blown away.
We were driving around on the weekend, and I don't remember how it came up, but I said, danger is my middle name. And you It is not. Rudely And listen. Said that No. If you could come up with any middle name for me, danger would be the last one.
It certainly would be low on the list, and I don't mean that in in a way to be in any way to be mean. You were just trying to be all cool and, and and be like, no. No. I do I do crazy stuff. Danger is my middle name.
I am so dangerous. Danger. No. You're not. Yeah.
No. Yeah. I I I'd have to pick something else. What would you pick? I would pick If you had to pick a middle name for me.
Oopsie Daisy is a good one. That's a good middle name. Oopsie daisy. Whether it's I tripped on something Yeah. Or, I said something I wasn't supposed to say.
It's a secret. Dangerous. That's no. It's not That's such risky behavior. Whoopsie daisy.
Tripping and saying things that you're not supposed to? Risky. That's so risky. Whoopsie daisy. Dangerous.
You're not dangerous. I am so dangerous. It's not. Go ride a motorcycle. No way.
Dangerous. That's too dangerous. See? Whoopsie, Daisy. I put this shirt in the dryer that I meant to hang to dry.
Whoopsie daisy. Hey. I didn't do that. You did that. No.
I'm saying that's the kind of stuff that you think is dangerous. It is dangerous. You almost shrunk that wool sweater. Woah. Woah.
Danger. I've never said whoopsie daisy in my life. No. I know. You just did.
But If I say, like, whoop, would be Whoop. Yes. I say that in my trip. Whoop. Whoop.
Or if I tell a secret. Whoop. Whoopsie daisy. That's that's what I think is is better if as a middle name. Okay.
I'd I agree. It's a much more fitting middle name than danger. But that is also risky behavior. What? Tripping.
No. Slipping. Oh, it's icy outside. Danger. Better get my metal spikes out.
Yeah. You have those. I do have those because my mailman friend gave me some. Okay. But listen.
If you have, if you have those and you don't use them Oh, danger. Danger. See? Yeah. Or I told you.
Once you're laying there on your back, you say out loud, whoopsie I never say whoopsie daisy. What I will say is whoop. Whoop. We all know what you mean. She she's just abbreviating whoopsie daisy stuff.
You were telling me to watch a video that you sent me, and the video was all about it was a woman who said that men typically like quests. Yeah. But then she also went on to say men don't like puzzles. They like low hanging easy tasks, and I disagree. This is a generalization.
This isn't true for all men. Well, my guess is I disagree for me. That is not the case. I like puzzles. A quest is fine, but her whole thing was about how you should, you should just be thankful that they wanna, they being men wanna give you a hand.
And Yeah. If they ask if you, you know, need something to drink, you should let them go on that little quest. Go on that quest. Oh, can I, go scrape your car windows? Which I did this morning.
Go complete that quest. Thank you. Yeah. By the way. Well, I had gloves on for 1, so I I was prepared.
And I didn't have to scrape my own vehicle, so I was able to just hop on your windshield done, good to go. Let's get out of here. That's it. The I think the whole argument of this woman's video was that she was saying that a lot of times men will say, hey. Can I do this nice thing for you?
And women, again, a generalization, say, oh, no. Thank you. I don't wanna freak you out. Well, I'm good. Yeah.
I don't need the help. That's fine. Whatever. Yeah. Let them do it Instead.
Was her argument. Yeah. Yeah. They love it. They love the love quest.
She's like, be grateful. When they come back, let them know how great it was that they did that quest. That's amazing. Send those men on a quest. Yeah.
Apparently. We're just waiting for, like, something else to do. Because sitting, doing nothing is not on the agenda. Here's a quest. A quest.
No. I'm good. Reward them. So you give them, like, a hug and a thank you as, like, their victory point. Yeah.
Oh, thanks. Yeah. Look. You're winning. Beat the quest.
Ridiculous. Want another side quest? I don't. I want to sit down. Quit making me do stuff.
No. I've got more quests. Making it a game. The Internet said you like quests. No.
I like sitting. Your video game has lots of quests. You might find that video game. To go sit and play my video game. That would be great.
I'm already on quests on my game. There's a bunch of puzzles involved too. Weird. What you said when you sent that video to me, you said, I don't know if I necessarily agree with this. Yeah.
And I said At the end, she really had this sort of attitude to gratitude thing. That was really what I thought was was important was just that you should be grateful for things and and don't apologize when someone helps you. Yeah. Instead, just say thanks. I really appreciate that.
Instead of saying, sorry. I'm late, you say thank you so much for waiting. Correct. That's the mentality that needs to exist, not here's something else to do. Those are 2 separate videos.
I don't know why they were combined. You are correct. And I don't need another quest. Thanks. Oh, I can find some for you.
I'm so good. I've got a lot of quests for you at that house. Am good. You became a sewing machine technician yesterday. Really?
Did I? I don't know if I did. I certainly found myself, tearing into a sewing machine that I was not you speak of quests. There's one. Oh, there is a quest.
Holy cow. I guess it was not yesterday. It was Saturday. You ripped my whole sewing machine apart. Yeah.
I had to get all kinds of tools out and Yeah. And it was crazy. But, ultimately I mean, this look. The sewing machine works. You're able to sew with it.
You just weren't able to wind your bobbin, and that's a real important part of the sewing machine, being able to function, having thread in a bobbin. Time out. Because what I noticed when I sat down, I hadn't used my sewing machine in a long time. When I sat down to sew, I went brown thread? When did I use brown thread?
Brown thread. And then I took the bobbin out, the brown bobbin out, and I went, what's all this fur? What's all this fuzz? What is all that brown fuzz? The last time my sewing machine was used was for a Halloween costume that you made a mouse tell.
And pants. And pants. Yeah. That was the pants. The pants are probably what got it.
So the last time I used my sewing machine, the bobbin threader worked. Yeah. So what happened? You broke my machine is what happened. Making those pants.
No. Those yes, sir. I don't know about all that. Yes. No.
Making those hideous pants. Is that what you said? No. Yeah. Making those Halloween pants is what I said.
Hideous Halloween pants. Say hideous. I thought they were cool. Mhmm. That you did a great job.
Sure. You ruined my sewing machine in the process. I don't know that I did. You didn't ruin it. I just can't thread a bobbin.
Yep. So, anyway, we got that solved. They make premade, prewound bobbins, but they also make a a little device that you can set next to your sewing machine that will do the, bobbin winding for you. Yeah. Which I think is good because then you can have bobbins on demand anytime you want without without having to put the machine into a different mode.
That's kind of actually Yeah. It might be okay. I think it will be. I did we did get a 6 pack of pre threaded bobbin. I think there's more than 6.
There's probably at least 8 or 12 of white and 8 or 12 of the No. There were 6 of white and 6 of black, but I went through 2 of those already. Yeah. Imagine all the sewing you couldn't have gotten done if you hadn't, you know, figured out that that was anyway, it doesn't matter. I don't know what I'm talking about.
It's working. Things are great. I'm not a sewing machine repairman, but I've seen more of the inside of your sewing machine than I ever thought I would. I appreciate you taking a look at it. Yeah.
All I did was figure out where all the parts were. I didn't fix anything. No. But you So now I know that. I have that information in my head now.
I know what it looks like inside your sewing machine. Congratulations. Yeah. Thanks. I don't know what I'll ever do with that, but I know now what I did not know going into this weekend.
So a skill upgrade? Sure. Plus 1 on my sewing machine knowledge? Good job. Thanks.
Victory point. So over on eastidahonews.com, in their features section, they have a feature called in the garden. And, in this particular section, they are talking about secession planting. What's that? Or succession planting, however you like to say it.
This is where here's what happens. We've done a garden before, and it seems like it's a lot to deal with. And we've been talking about doing a garden this spring. And what happens is you figure out all the plants you want, you figure out the seeds you want, and you go buy all the seed packs, and you germinate stuff, or you just go wild and get, you know, whatever. And you plant it all in your garden, and you have all the stuff all season long, and then you have this insane amount of harvest at the end if you did it, you know, well.
And and then you just have all of this, what they're calling, glut of crops. Oh. Because of the plenty of crops. All of a sudden, you have, like, 4,000 zucchinis. Yeah.
And you have, like And you have to offload them to friends and neighbors. Right. And you're like, who wants some? Because I can't. So this is an interesting way of planting, where instead of, planting everything at once, you sort of plant things that are going to be hardy in the early colder months and then things that are gonna do better as it gets warmer.
And so instead of planting it all at once, you sort of plant it in stages, which is kinda cool. And it extends your harvest season because you're gathering specific crops earlier, and then planting stuff as it kinda goes. So cool season crops like lettuce, spinach, and peas are planted early in the spring, and then warm season crops like your tomatoes and your beans can be planted 2nd. And then later in the season, you can plant your quick maturing vegetables, stuff like radishes, turnips, which those can be yeah. If you wanna grow those.
I've never planted a turnip. Me neither. I've never eaten a turnip. But that stuff can be harvested before the first frost. So by staggering your plantings, you have a steady supply of fresh vegetables throughout the growing season instead of just a bulk of stuff all the time like that.
So, anyway, they've got a whole rundown of, different crop selection for cool season, warm season, and quick growing crops, and this whole thing is ateastidahoneews.com. It's in the garden section, under features at eastidahoneews.com if you wanna learn more. Yeah. Yesterday well, the weekend, really, was spent you did a lot of fly tying. I did.
I'm tying a bunch. Did I've made an entire top of a quilt. That's what we did all weekend. We quilted and and and, and and made, flies. That's what we did.
I tied flies. You made a quilt. We both did a bunch of things with thread. Yeah. It was awesome.
It was awesome. I also organized my fly fishing bag. I organized all of my fly boxes. I had because when you go fishing and you change flies, sometimes you're in a hurry, and so you just take off a whole section of line with a couple of flies tied to it and you throw it in your box. And then it sits there, and then you you fish more.
And I had probably 6 of those, and I was like, this is a tangled up mess. I need to clean this up. So, yeah, I'm cleaning up flies. I'm looking at, like, what might be damaged, and, I had a couple that I repaired, one that I completely took apart and rebuilt. Like, it was pretty cool.
Yeah. Job. Yeah. As I was going to bed last night, I was looking around going, oh, I should have vacuumed. And then it made me think I should have swept and mopped like I had been meaning to all week.
And then I started feeling guilty about the should haves that I should have done instead of the thing that I wanted to do, which was to spend all weekend sewing. Which you did. Which I did. Yeah. And so I said out loud to myself, no.
I won't feel guilty about the should haves because did I enjoy my time that I spent doing the thing that I enjoyed? Yes. Where was I when you were talking to yourself? Right across the bed. Did I say anything?
I don't remember. Did you say something? I'm just I I'm I hear you talk to yourself often, so I probably didn't. But if I heard you go, no. I'm gonna feel fine about what I did.
I would've I would've looked across the room and went, what? I didn't say it like that. No. I think I said I think I said out loud, oh, I needed to vacuum. And then I said, nope.
I'm not gonna feel guilty about the should haves. Well, I'm glad you came to that conclusion. Because you don't listen to me anyway. Exactly. Nuh-huh.
Nuh-huh. Nuh-huh. Come on. I hear everything you say all day, every day. You only hear the things I don't want you to hear.
I hear it all. There's a little thing called the NFL playoffs happening this weekend. Well, it's happening What? It happened? It happened this weekend.
Part part of it. The wild it was wild card weekend. Yeah. And there's still one game left that is happening tonight. Tonight.
Yes. Which a game that we are anticipating Yes. Because it's the Vikings game Yes. And, they're playing against the Los Angeles chargers. Rams.
Now Los Angeles Rams. And this game had to be moved from Los Angeles because of the wild fire. So where are they where are they playing? I think they're playing in Vegas, Arizona. In Las Vegas, Arizona?
I can't remember. I think they got moved to Glendale. I think you're right. I think it got moved to moved to Arizona. Now I really can't remember.
The interest of public safety, it will be moved from SoFi Stadium to the Cardinals State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. Yep. Okay. That is correct. This is oh, no.
What happened? I lost my bracket here. This is kind of a big deal What? Because, typically, during the playoffs, getting your home field advantage is a huge deal. And so both of these teams being away from home for this game, that is, that's a big deal.
Kind of an upset, isn't it? That's kind of it's kind of a factor. It's definitely something that has to be taken into consideration, with this game that's going on tonight. But, anyway, Rams We have a little bracket going on in our house. Yeah.
We've got points. You, me, and Beck are all tied. Emery is losing. Oh, no. Which is fine.
She won our fantasy league. Can't win them all. Did you pick the commanders, or did you pick the Buccaneers? Picked the commanders. That one was a close game, and it all came down to the kicker who, let's be real.
That was unbelievable. The amount of luck that that man has. Kicked it and it doinked off the field goal post into Yeah. Goal. The those don't typically go in.
No. And it was I mean, down to this is it. Game's tied. And he looks This is it. Nervous as all get out.
Yeah. I was nervous for him. I know I felt so bad for him. But, but it all went well, and, and and they're moving on. So fine.
Good deal. And the Ravens are moving on, and the Bills are moving on, and the Texans are moving on, and the Eagles. And the Vikings tonight. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
I would love to see listen. Don't think this is how it's going to happen, but it would be really cool to see a Vikings, Ravens game. Your 2 favorite teams? My 2 favorites. Yeah.
I get it. I don't think that's what's gonna happen. But I would also like to see the Lions in there because I think that would be a cool game. Well, you can only have 2 teams, not 3. I know, Josh.
You imagine? They just, like, there's 4 teams, and they're playing Simultaneously. All on the field at once. What a mess. What a disaster that'd be.
It'd be fun to watch maybe. But, anyway, more playoff football action tonight, then we'll have a better idea of what's going on for next week. Dun dun dun. Dun dun. Skull.
You took me to a place, and then you said, this place is gonna have more hackle than you've ever seen in your life, and you were wrong. I took you to what is called the house of hackle. Alright. So if you tie flies, you know what hackle is. If you have no idea what hackle is, it's basically a bunch of chicken feathers.
That's what it is. That is what it is. It's a bunch of feathers from different birds. There's chickens and quails and partridges and, there's so many different animals. But it but it's all materials.
Yeah. There's there's furrows from everything. There's there's all kinds of things. But hackles specifically is is a bunch of feathers, and those folks have the most amount of feathers I've ever seen in my life. More have you ever seen in your life.
I saw some pictures online. I'd never been into this shop. And, and so I I said, Saturday, I really wanna go to the shop. I wanna go check it out. End up having some, lovely conversation with Justin, the guy that works there, which was cool.
But there is just a ton of feathers. Was it was it indeed more hackle than you'd seen in your ever in your life? Yes. It was. My favorite part is that I was like, I'm gonna go in with you.
And then, about 10 minutes later, I went, yeah. I'm gonna give me the keys. I'm gonna go back out to the truck. I'll just wait in the truck. And you did.
I've seen enough hackle. I'm gonna go wait in the truck. They have so many different kinds, so many different colors. It's hot. But you you really had never been in a in a situation with that many feathers, and I knew that about you.
So this this is this is gonna be impressive. This is gonna be something she's gonna remember for a long time, the amount of feathers she's gonna see today. And I wanted you to, you know, be prepared. I was. Thanks.
I don't think you were. I don't think you were prepared for that. I think that's why you went back out to the truck. You and I was blown away. I can't handle it.
I gotta go sit down. This has knocked my socks off. I need to go adjust. My socks are falling right off my feet. So, you're welcome for that.
I just really I wanted you to have an experience that was memorable It was. And that was also new and exciting. So exciting. When you walk in to any fly shop with me, what do you seek out? Nothing.
Nothing? Well, I like to go to the premade flies Sure. Because those really are a work of art, and the flies that you made over the weekend are beautiful. Okay. And so I like to look some of them are really cool.
Some of them look like little mice. Some of them look like little crabs. Yeah. And so I am amazed by the talent that it takes to make those. And some of them are tiny, teeny, tiny.
Yeah. I mean, some of the stuff I was tying I wasn't tying, like, itty bitty stuff. I could tie smaller. But I was tying pretty small. And when I put them in the fly box, I'm like, man, these are little.
So I look at those first. That's where I go to first, the pre made flies. Uh-huh. And then I look at the tools Oh. Because I go, is there anything that I a tool that I could use for crafting?
Okay. Like, what's something that could be something that I'd be into? Sure. And then I look at other thing. I look at clothes Okay.
Because sometimes they have clothes there, and they have sometimes women's clothes. That's where I go. Those three spots. So you did that, and then you went, I'm out. Yeah.
They had a book section, so I was looking at the books. Bunch of fishing books? Yeah. Yeah. And then I went, I've I've seen enough.
No offense. The store No. It's just not up your alley. Yeah. I had done my shopping at that store, and then I went, yeah.
I'm gonna I'm gonna go sit I'm gonna go sit down. Okay. Well, thanks for going with me anyway. It was, it was a fun adventure. And you got to see all your things.
All of the hack off. Oh, boy. Oh, dog. Time for a little would you rather this or that. Would you rather never have to sleep again but always feel tired?
No. That sounds awful. Or you'd need to sleep 12 hours a day, but you always wake up feeling completely refreshed. That one, I guess. 12 hours a day.
Half the day. That's half the day, brah. You never get anything done. I would figure out how to get stuff done in 12 hours that I'm awake. You would have 8 hours of work Yeah.
12 hours of sleep and then 4 hours of free time Yeah. Every day. Yeah. 4 hours of But I'd be rested. I'm not gonna be permanently always full time, tired.
I feel like that already. So I'm taking that one. I always feel tired. So So just status quo? Yeah.
Okay. Well I'll take that one. Okay. Okay. 4 hours a day to do everything you wanna do and everything you need to do.
Yeah. No. I get it. Happy, bro. I get it.
Well, good luck with your, no sleep. Good luck with your being tired. 12 hours of sleep, bud. Yeah. I'll never see you again.
I'll just be sleeping. I know. I'll be awake for a time. You we can hang then. For 4 hours.
You get 4 hours. I also have work time in there, so we'll see each other at work. And then, you know, then another 4 hours late. It's just like it is now. That's true.
It's not much different. It is just way not 12 hours of sleep in there, which sounds pretty good. I'd take some of that right now, actually. I could take 12 hours of sleep right now. Yeah.
Would you rather this or that? You and I have been trying to figure out where we might wanna go on a trip for Bora? No. I it's out of the question. It's too much money.
That's just it. Unless you plan on finding $16,000 somewhere. It's just not happening. I know. Australia, I would like to I'd like to knock off the list as well.
Okay. One, it's really far away. 2, have you seen kangaroos? They're so muscly. I don't wanna meet one.
Oh, you're saying you don't wanna go to Australia. I'm saying take Australia off the list. Oh, why? I wanna go. No.
You don't. Okay. Why? Because they just discovered a new, species of funnel web spider Oh. In Newcastle, Australia.
It is the a Trax Christianci, something like that. The Newcastle big boy, they're calling it. It has instantly become the world's most venomous spider. Really? The Newcastle big boy.
K. I'm gonna look it up. Okay. There it is. I found it.
I don't have a picture yet. Which feels very Australian, by the way. We gotta call that thing the big boy. Boy. A big boy.
The most venomous spider is what they're saying? Yeah. Absolutely. Top of the list instantly. Oh, no.
Yeah. The Newcastle big boy. Okay. We don't need to go where those are. That's why I'm saying away from the entire island slash continent slash country of Australia.
There it's not gonna be in the entire continent. No. It exists on that continent, though. Yeah. The big boy.
I think that's funny. Yeah. It's such a scientific name. The Newcastle big boy. I just feel like I don't wanna be on the same island as that.
He's been confined to the Newcastle area, and it's unlikely to venture south. So we just go to South Australia, and then we're fine. Nah. And you can get antivenom antivenom. I don't want to have to do that.
You can use the regular funnel web antivenom too. It's crazy. It's not as big as I thought it was supposed to be. Babyjeebs. Oh, he is pretty gross.
Yikes. Yeah. Zoinks, Scoob. Ruh roh. Isn't it amazing that there's still people that Finding new things.
Finding new species? Yeah. I I'm not into the Newcastle big boy. I don't wanna see it. I don't wanna I I hate that it showed up on my Internet.
I'm closing all the tabs that I have open looking at it. Ugh. Are you into the Newcastle small boy? No. No.
I am not. Thanks for asking. I want nothing to do with Newcastle and their big and small boys. I think we should end the show with that. Okay.
So Sounds fine. We'll keep looking for somewhere to vacation. It won't be Newcastle, Australia because they got the big boy. I don't want anything to do with it. I hurt.
